Pro-American restorationist candidate Trump slaughtered his rivals for the GOPher party delegates in South Carolina today. Trump has secured all 50 delegates from South Carolina. That is a scathing win.

Trump's victory continues to surprise pundits but not Americans who have suffered since the collapse of peak GDP, which came in the fourth quarter of 2007. Since then American families have been wrecked by lengthened unemployment and lower wages.

Trump managed to win South Carolina by only spending $35,600 each delegate. Rubio spent $12,050,000 and came up empty as did Ted Cruz who spent $7,070,000.

As well, Trump has spent the fewest dollars spent for each delegate. As a successful billionaire businessman, this should surprise no one. Trump knows how to process intel about markets.

Trump is much smarter at politics than the professional politicians.Politicians are wasteful. Politicians rely upon leeching consultants. Politicians are not smart.

After New Hampshire, I wrote that Jeb Bush was not viable as a candidate. South Carolina proved my claim. So it is no surprise that Jeb did Americans a favor and dropped out tonight.

Jeb was on pace to spend $26.7 billion to win the nomination. No nomination has ever required that much spending. Jeb spent 135 times more for each of his delegates than Donald Trump spent.

As can be seen, Marco Rubio is on pace to spend $6.9 billion to win the nomination. That insane sum of spending will not win Rubio the presidency. Rubio is not a viable candidate and needs to drop out.

Donald Trump would need to spend $162.1 million to win the nomination. This is a reasonable sum and well below what either Hillary Clinton ($1.118 billion) or Bernie Sanders ($924 million) must spend to win their Democratic Party nomination.

In 2016, a Democratic candidate must secure at least 2,382 out of 4,763 delegates to become the party’s nominee. The number of delegates allocated to each state takes into account the state’s Democratic vote in the previous three presidential elections and its assigned number of Electoral College votes.

Meanwhile, a Republican candidate must secure at least 1,237 out of 2,472 delegates to win the party’s nomination. The Republican Party allocates each state ten delegates, plus three for each congressional district, and bonus delegates for states that contributed electoral votes to the party in the previous presidential election, as well those that elected Republicans to high offices.
